| Climbed w/ Whitney Lyman - plenty of loose scree on the way up, but enjoyable climb with one of the better summit views in the region. Chose a more easterly decent and would not recommend this route. | |

| This peak is geologically unique -- it's made of rhyolite, in a chain of limestone peaks. The Native Americans used obsidian from nearby to make arrowheads. There is still a "pearlite" mine near the base, where one can see hydrated obsidian blown into the neighboring limestone. | |

| Despite all the loose stuff on the way up, I really enjoyed this obscure little peak. The views along the ridge and from the summit were phenomenal. | |
